Rezensionen

"This innovative text for professionals and students in the field of forensic psychology provides readers with a rare, in-depth view of the context and background to assessments and interventions used in clinical practice. I highly recommend these engaging case studies for those who wish to see how to apply peer-reviewed research in practice."- Jay P. Singh, PhD, Visiting Scholar, Institute of Criminology, University of Cambridge, UK

"This book very helpfully explores the work and role of forensic psychologists in a variety of settings using a series of case-studies. Adopting this approach enables the reader to gain a deeper understanding of how forensic psychologists assess and formulate treatment options when assisting young people, those with personality or neurodevelopment disorders, learning disabilities or sexual deviancies. Organisational considerations are usefully factored into each chapter." - Professor Michael Brookes OBE, Professor of Forensic Psychology, Chartered and Registered Forensic Psychologist, UK

"This book provides key insights into the variety of work undertaken by forensic psychologists. The case studies provided are interesting to read and clearly presented. This book is a great read for those developing their assessment and formulation skills in forensic psychology." - Professor Theresa A. Gannon, Director of CORE-FP, University of Kent and Consultant Forensic Psychologist, Forensic Care Group, KMPT, UK
